Comparison pic:
Blue is a bit darker, yellow is a bit paler. Overall, I think it's turned out pretty nice so far. Cannot wait to get the metal parts back from the powder coater. Let's get those repro bezels going!!

Looks great Phet! What happened to the Williams restricted copyright symbol on yours? It looks like just a yellow circle...

Alright, alright, you win. It looks better than it did before, as always well played my friend. Great job!

Wow, looks great. I had to make my own stencils, which in a way was good because I got a little bit of that overspray and soft edges of the original, which these vinyl decals lack. (They look "too" good!!!) I love the colors... my dark blue ended up being TOO dark, plus I had some clearcoat issues on the left side. Overall mine turned out nice (couldn't find any good pictures right now??) but this one makes it look downright BAD. It was my first stencil job and I had to make my own stencils, so cut me some slack. The dark blue isn't nearly as dark as it looks in these pics, this camera sucked so all the colors look off, but in reality the light blue and yellow were dead on matches for the original.
To be honest, in a dimly lit gameroom, mine never bothers me. I'm just damned glad that I've already done one or this thread would be driving me crazy. Seeing Burgertime threads makes me really want stencil mine and make it mint, which is nothing but trouble!
Very nice job... I love seeing Moon Patrol restencils... tells me I'm not the only person idiotic enough to restencil a relatively low value game...

Wow thats a far cry from the one I used to have...(second cab from the right)
Cab was left outside for about a month, it was bad, and I do mean BAAD, but still solid as a rock, and to this day, I regret trashing it, despite all the rotted wood and dead animals inside.
PS - I almost wish thats was all the games I still have. Times were simpler then!

Jeez, give a guy some frickin time, I just sprayed it last night. They are stickers that come with the stencil kit. I'll put them on when the paint cures.
I want to make sweet love to that cabinet.

Nice work, your colors don't look much different than mine really. Made your own stencils eh? Hardcore. I love this artwork and never considered myself an idiot for restoring one of the most iconic games out there.
